Before you can start
marketing your products or services on social network sites you will need to setup an account. Multiple accounts are preferred, although they can be very time consuming to do. You always have an option of using pseudonyms to help protect your personal privacy. An email address will be required to create and confirm your account. If you�re planning to setup different accounts, and the social network site you�re planning to join in is limiting users to only one email per account, the best approach would be to create different accounts, but bearing identical business names. That way, you can open multiple identities on the social
network and still leave online visitors a way of recognizing your product or service.
If you are successful at this step, you will be provided, by email, a system-generated URL towards your online identity profile. Some
websites however require users to personalize their web address and profile content.
Tip # 2: Don�t forget the Images
One of the first things that online users will notice or probably check out is the image section of your account. Visual flavors will certainly set the visitor�s moods. Personal
images won�t just do if you have multiple accounts. You need to have a lot of stock photos to share, or probably borrow some pictures from friends or use corporate images to display on your site.
Tip # 3: Fill up your Profile
One of the best ways to get searched on social network sites is by filling up your user profile. Some user information might probably be filled up the moment you register your account. Still, there are some details which social network sites leave for the user to fill up later on. Make sure that your user profile contains personalized information. Social networks use this information to
categorize users by location, age, gender, interests, etc.
Tip # 4: Don�t Put up too many Ads.
Be careful about putting up too many marketing ads on your user profile since most users do not like visiting a spammy or advertising-packed website or social account. Make sure your user profile can reach out to your online visitor�s interests. Do not make a user account just for the sake of building a
marketing hive. Put some effort to make your account more personalized, and it will lead more users to visit it. And more traffic should mean users knowing more about you and your products or services.
Social
networking is truly a marvelous technology that can provide web marketers some leverage and give them, not only traffic, but also better search engine rankings for their site.
